Hi, yes, I have them. Besides what's listed, I have ......

-Cinderella99(C99), a fast flowering, fruity sativa. True to its
reputation.
-C99 x BB, untested but should be good.
-Sweet Skunk x C99 for sativa lovers like me. Very good.
-King x NL, also untested.

The King is a local strain, long history, I grew out a
few seeds and was very impressed from a small sample. Grew out
another batch and selected the best female to try with my BB male.
The King looks like somewhat of a typical hybrid but definitely
leans indica. Similar to my NL in structure, matures quite quickly,
7 weeks for a clone anyway. It is very potent and sticky.

My Psycho Killers haven shown sex yet, and dont look very sativa so far based on leaves and their close nodes

First pic is 3 PK and 2 Dog
2nd pic is some clones Purple Cadillac, Tangie, and Dream Queen
3rd pic is a Psy Killer

One of the dogs always looks depressed, might be root bound.
Thought wasnt enough water or RH too low, but still doing it.

They look happy. :0)

The clones look pretty rough, but I think they will get it together when they get a new pot.
The Tangies are almost ready to repot, and they are the slowest ones. 9 days in cups from rockwool, they are small cups.

Pay no attention to the c99 written on one pot (PK). I just never pulled that off.

Do you think they can still get sativa looking leaves or are they gonna stay that way.

Oh, now that is a good question....I really do not think that there are
breeds for which the basic shape changes.

....but here when I write "basic changes" I mean the general shape of a mature
leaf of a given breed.....we all know that the leaves of breeds change as they grow
with the number of blades, etc, changing.

duchieman has pics of his that look nothing like mine.
I understand different phenos, but all 3 not looking sativa?
I thought all or most at least were supposed to be sativa.
Just like the Dog Fs I grew yrs ago were the only ones that came out sat dom and 100% foxtailed (fire!!!!!!) All the others I saw were indica dom.
Just my luck I guess lol

I managed to put the new tent together:


That is the new 2X2.5 behind the duct.

I also replaced that duct with that single piece....I pulled it fairly taut
and have that drawing air as freely as possible. It is to the credit of the LEC
tech that it can be cooled by that sort of passive approach.

More to come.

I was imagining a 15x15 tent with multiple smaller tents inside when I first looked at your picture.
Getting a nice collection of them there

I forgot was that purple zipper one Apollo?
Thinking of replacing my failing 2x4 with the Apollo one with that wrap around purple zipper design

Up-potted the Dogs to see if that makes them happy again like the PKs
1 gal plastic to 3gal cloth type till I figure out if the PK are girls and how many I have to work with

Keep 'em happy 'till they show nuts, then WHAMMO!

LOL I had to admit Testes and chop down a strong 818 Headband
and Larry OG just this morning.

Now, I popped such a slew that I do not mind culling a few. :0)

NOTE: That is indeed an Apollo tent. It was my second, was supposed
to be an upgrade, and became the reason I upgraded to Gorilla which
runs at twice the price. The reason I switched again was that, brand
new, I found that there is an angle that I can see light coming out of the
tent, at the zipper, without trying hard. The zipper config is cool, but
I have been doing this long enough to wear down a tent and I know
how it goes down.

I am going to hang a 40W Kessil 150 in the 2X2 and run males in there.
I will need to deal with ducting the HEPA before I start that tent.

I did pop a new Romberry though.

I added a Cali Connection Chem 4 too.

Sorry to hear about the males, but you have some more good ones going in.

I could throw a piece of panda film over the zipper.
I cant afford a better tent right now, just need one that the zipper doesnt break in 6 mos like this crap I have now did.
Do you think the zipper will be reliable besides the light leak?
My thinking is that since the zipper is always on track like jeans, less chance for problems.
I can get the 2x4x5ft high Apollo for $82 shipped +tax Amazon Prime. Cant go higher than 5ft because of closet shelf support.
Unless you know of a better option in my lame budget...

Also repotted 4 of the 6 clones in there.
Can seem to find the rest of my 3ltr or 1 gal (not sure) pots so waiting on PK to sex and the Tangies roots hadnt spun around yet anyway

Yes, the Apollo tent is decently made otherwise.

As to hanging panda film over the worn areas, see the photo
again....the older tent, the HPS tent, is on the right. See the panda? :0)

Haha like minds...yeah I see it.
I like the folder clips to hold it on. I overlap on top with book lol.

I was not joking:


I checked the result and on the lowest setting I am seeing good pull.

With the draw so high up, and a 40W Kessil lighting it, I am sure that I can
fit four males into this easily. Whether I will manage to avoid pollenating
the females in the room will remain to be seen. Physical procedures will need
to bue figured out. i.e. to turn off the drawing fan in air in the HPS ought to
allow me to open the tent and remove mature males....or maybe I will want to chop
them into big trash bags to remove them....remains to be seen.

JD

Is that the hepa filter thing taped to that box?

Yeah, I have to duct the fan to the tent.

You can see it better here....though the duct enters on the far side.....


Like I said, this little tent will get only a 40W Kessil. I expect this small unit to
keep the tent cool too.

Ok gotcha
That Kessil seems to be lasting well for you.
